// 01 CTO-as-a-Service

A CTO for your product, without hiring one.

I take on the technical leadership of your product a few days a month: architecture, roadmap, hiring and mentoring of your developers. You move forward with the experience of a CTO, without a full-time hire.

  • 22 years of web development
  • 16 companies supported
  • 3× CTO positions
  • 2022 Symfony certified

// 02 Who it is for

For products that need a technical direction.

  • You are launching your product

    Nobody is making the technical calls yet. I lay down the architecture and the roadmap from the start, to build on solid foundations.

  • Your team is growing

    Your developers move forward without a shared direction. I structure the team, hire the missing profiles and help everyone grow.

  • Your product already exists

    Legacy code or an AI-generated prototype: I assess where it stands, then set a course to make it reliable without stopping production.

// 03 Missions

What I take on.

  • Architecture and technical choices

    Reasoned, documented technical choices, sized for your team, your budget and your deadlines.

  • Technical roadmap

    The technical work aligned with the priorities of the product, split into steps you can follow.

  • Hiring

    The missing profiles, the technical interviews and the onboarding of new developers into the team.

  • Upskilling

    Code review, pair programming and training: your developers grow their skills and their autonomy.

  • Quality and releases

    Automated tests, continuous integration and controlled releases, to ship often without breaking anything.

  • Providers and hosting

    The services your product runs on, chosen French or else European, with their strengths and their limits.

    Why made in France

// 04 Process

How it works.

  1. 01

    First conversation

    Your product, your team, your constraints: I pin down the need, then send you a clear proposal.

    Assessment

    Code, architecture, team and tools: a reasoned assessment and a prioritised action plan.

  3. 03

    Roadmap

    The work, the hires and the milestones, decided with you and reviewed as the project moves on.

  4. 04

    Technical leadership

    I lead the technical side a few days a month, on a time and materials basis, mostly remotely and on site for the key moments.

// 05 Experience

Already a CTO several times.

Every CTO position of my career, the most recent first.

    Symfony developer in this SME of 4~7 people specialized in e-commerce & web-to-print, I quickly became CTO and I set up a team of 3 developers.

The whole career

CTO-as-a-Service

Let's talk about your project.

No need for a full-time CTO? I take on the technical leadership of your product a few days a month, drawing on 3 CTO roles.

  • Documented architecture choices, built to last
  • A technical roadmap aligned with your priorities
  • A team that is hired, mentored and keeps growing

Looking for team reinforcement, an audit or a migration instead? A first conversation to understand your needs, then a clear proposal.
